Hi,

You seem to have pompholyx.Pompholyx is also known as dyshidrotic eczema or vesicular eczema of the hands and/or feet. something wrong with the sweat duct, but this is incorrect despite the condition sometimes being aggravated by heat and stress, which could increase sweating of the palms and soles.Soaks or compresses using weak solutions of Condy's crystals (potassium permanganate), aluminium acetate, or vinegar in water, are applied for 15 minutes four times a day. This will dry the vesicles.Emollients,steroid cream and antibiotic cream may be applied. Orally steroid tab in tappering dose with antibiotics may be taken. You may be alright. Still, you consult dermatologist. I hope you got my answer.

Thanks.
